log(5)125 =
log(5) 5^(3) =
3log(5) 5 =
3 (1) = 3
Remember for any log base if the coefficient is the same as the base then the answer is '1'
Hence
log(10)10 = 1
log(a) a = 1
et.seq.,
You can convert the log base '5' , to log base '10' for ease of the calculator.
Log(5)125 = log(10)125/log(10)5
Hence
log(5)125 = log(10) 5^(3) / log(10)5 =>
log(5)125 = 3log(10)5 / log(10)5
Cancel down by 'log(10)5'.
Hence
log(5)125 = 3
NB one of the factors of 'log' is log(a) a^(n)
The index number of 'n' can be moved to be a coefficient of the 'log'.
Hence
log(a) a^(n) = n*log(a)a
Hope that helps!!!!!
What 'logarithm base are you using. If Base '10' per calculator The log(10)125 = 2.09691 However, You can use logs to any base So if we use base '5' Then log(5)125 = 3 Because 125 = 5^3
Your calculator won't usually have a function to calculate logs in base 5 or base 8 directly, but this can easily be solved. For example: log5125 = log 125 / log 5 (taking both logs in base 10, or both logs in base e) In this particular case, you can also solve the equation mentally - you don't even need a calculator! Just use the definition of a log: "To what power must I raise 5 to get 125?" The answer to this is, by definition, log5125. Similarly with log28.
Due to the rubbish browser that we are compelled to use, it is not possible to use any super or subscripts so here goes, with things spelled out in detail: log to base 2a of 2b = log to base a of 2b/log to base a of 2a = [(log to base a of 2) + (log to base a of b)] / [(log to base a of 2) + (log to base a of a)] = [(log to base a of 2) + (log to base a of b)] / [(log to base a of 2) + 1]

To make a natural log a log with the base of 10, you take ten to the power of you natural log. Ex: ln15=log10ln15=log510.5640138 I'm sorry if you don't have a calculator that can do this, but this will work.

a log is the 'undo-er' of powers, kind of like division is the 'undo-er' of multiplication. EX: 102 = 100, then log10(100) = 2 103 = 1000, then log10(1000) = 3, in this example, we are using log base 10, this is a default base and sometimes isn't even wirten. e is probably the most common base but log base e is more simply called the natural log, or ln. so in general: logx(m) = N means that xN = m so log5(125) = 3 because 53 = 125.

log 100 base e = log 100 base 10 / log e base 10 log 100 base 10 = 10g 10^2 base 10 = 2 log 10 base 10 = 2 log e base 10 = 0.434294 (calculator) log 100 base e = 2/0.434294 = 4.605175
log base 2 of [x/(x - 23)]
The log of infinity, to any base, is infinity.
log base e = ln.
log0.1 50 = log10 50 / log10 0.1 ~= -1.699 To work out the log to any base b, logs to another base can be used: When logs are taken of a number to a power, then the power is multiplied by the log of the number, that is: log(bn) = n log b Taking logs to base b the power of b that equals the original number is being found, that is if: bn = m then logb m = n So, by using the logs to a base to which the answer can be known, the log to any base can be calculated: bn = m => n log b = log m => n = log m / log b => logb m = log m / log b as long as the same base is used for the logs on the right. It is normal to use base 10 or base e which are found on calculator buttons marked log (base 10) and ln (log natural - base e).
It is the value that when the base you have chosen for your log is raised to that value gives 40,000 log with no base indicated means log to any base, thought calculators often use it to mean logs to base 10, which is often abbreviated to lg lg(40,000) = log{base 10} 40,000 ≈ 4.6021 ln(40,000) = log{base e} 40,000 ≈10.5966
In base 5, the digits are 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4. To convert 125 to base 5, we need to find the highest power of 5 that is less than 125, which is 5^3 or 125. Therefore, 125 base 10 is equivalent to 1000 base 5.
